STOP PRESS: ‘God will punish Manoj Tiwari’

Bhojpuri superstar Manoj Tiwari may be expected to overpower Bollywood actor Ashmit Patel in the nomination votes of Bigg Boss, but the latter’s publicist Dale Bhagwagar has claimed that in the last two months, Manoj has “lost fans at the same pace Ashmit has gained them.”

The PR specialist who has earlier handled the publicity for Shilpa Shetty through the thick and thin of the Big Brother racism controversy, said, “Mr Tiwari has been consistently criticizing and back-biting Ashmit and others on the show. His taunting words and vindictive attitude for Ashmit was crystal clear when he even tried to rake up the old MMS issue this week.”

“Mr Tiwari arrogantly claims, he can get away with votes, as he commands a huge fan following in Bhojpuri cinema. But I feel, his politics and over-confidence might backfire. God will punish him,” Bhagwagar commented, hinting that he was confident of Ashmit and his newly acquired fan following.

‘Manoj Tiwari has defamed Ashmit Patel’

Ashmit Patel’s publicist is distraught with the remarks made by Bhojpuri superstar Manoj Tiwari on the reality show Bigg Boss this week. He has stated that the comments are “not only unwarranted, but downright defamatory and made with the intent to generate cheap mileage to last longer in the Bigg Boss House.”

 

Referring to Ashmit, Manoj said on the show, “Ganda hai… sa#@ dil ka… Matlab iss ghar mein agar koi sabse ma#@*%$*# … ek sadela aadmi hai… toh woh aadmi (Ashmit) hai. Kyonki dekho usne kya kiya apne life mein… girlfriend banaya… jiski usne video banake market mein de di.” [He (Ashmit) is smutty… (swearing)… from his heart. If there is one person in this House who is the most… (swearing again)… rotten man… that is him (Ashmit). He made a girlfriend… made her video and circulated it in the market].

 

Reacting to Manoj Tiwari’s insulting jibes, Ashmit’s publicist Dale Bhagwagar said, “Mr Tiwari has repeatedly raked up Ashmit’s old MMS issue on Bigg Boss, falsely alleging that Ashmit had deliberately spread the MMS.”

 

“Distorting facts in his conversations with other participants including Shweta Tiwari, Sameer Soni and The Great Khali, Mr Tiwari has vilified Ashmit and portrayed him in bad light behind his back. In fact, Mr Tiwari seems hell bent on tarnishing Ashmit’s image with his constant defamatory remarks about him,” added Bhagwagar.

 

It can be recalled that Ashmit Patel, on the very first day of the show, had categorically denied his involvement in spreading the MMS. In front of all the participants in the Bigg Boss House, he had narrated how the said personal video clip lying on his mobile phone, unknowingly got leaked out, when he gave his phone for repairs and how he had become a victim of circumstances.

 

The drama escalates between Manoj Tiwari and Ashmit Patel, as the very popular Bhojpuri superstar and the much smaller Bollywood actor, are the only two contestants nominated for elimination from Bigg Boss, this weekend.

 

“Mr Tiwari holds tremendous influence with the audiences because of his superstardom in Bhojpuri cinema. Does such slander against an upcoming actor like Ashmit, suit a man of Mr Tiwari’s clout and stature,” asked Ashmit’s publicist.

STOP PRESS: ‘I&B needs a reality check’

“The Ministry of Information & Broadcasting (I&B) needs to either grow up or do a ‘reality check’. We are living in the 21st century; the time of true freedom; the time of the Internet; the time of Twitter and Facebook. Today’s kids and teens watch porn all over the net; see heroines in bikinis in movies; watch rape scenes or hear foul language in films like Omkara; get to hear many obnoxious insinuations in various advertisements on TV; hear almost detestable language in serials and daily soaps; witness the most stinging words from news readers and hosts of various news channels everyday. Sections of the media have even gone to the extent of frequently showing mutilated bodies from accidents and bomb blasts. If all this is cleared and passed, either in the name of news or entertainment on prime time, then why have double standards for ‘Bigg Boss’ or ‘Rakhi Ka Insaaf’? Just because the shows have the word ‘reality’ prefixed on them? That’s completely unfair.”

ABOUT:
For the record, Dale Bhagwagar has earlier handled Brand Shilpa Shetty during the thick and thin of the international racism controversy in the UK reality show Big Brother. He is currently handling the imaging for Bigg Boss participant Ashmit Patel. From time to time, Bhagwagar has also looked after the publicity for the maximum Bigg Boss contestants including Vindu Dara Singh, Rakhi Sawant, Sherlyn Chopra, Shamita Shetty, Zulfi Syed and Diana Hayden, while the first Bigg Boss winner Rahul Roy has been his close friend.

Ameesha feels Ashmit is the ‘hot eye-candy’ of Bigg Boss!

In an interview to a news agency, Ameesha Patel has expressed her support for her brother Ashmit, currently making waves on the reality show Bigg Boss. So much so that Ameesha has said, she is cool with all his flirting too.

 

“I hear it often from others that ‘your brother is the only hot person and eye-candy in the Bigg Boss House’. He seems to have the right combination of being a friend and a flirt to everybody inside the House and I think that’s great,” remarked Ameesha.

 

She cheekily said, “Girls better chase him because if he is not flirting back then there is something wrong with him — he is not my brother. Plus, everybody knows it is a show at the end of the day; it is not that he is going to get a bride back home.”

 

Having said that, Ameesha made it a point to add, “I’ve always told him to respect a woman and never hurt her feelings. There is no harm in healthy flirting if it makes the other one feel special.”

 

Ashmit’s publicist Dale Bhagwagar remarked, “If Veena Malik heard that, she would end up blushing all day.”

DALE BHAGWAGAR ON ASHMIT PATEL…


An Interview on INDIAFORUMS.COM




Ashmit raps away his pain with a music video!


Even while Ashmit Patel is returning the onslaughts of the tormenting Dolly Bindra in the Bigg Boss House, his publicist Dale Bhagwagar released the Bollywood actor’s new music video ‘Apni Kahani Apni Zubaani’ at a press conference in Mumbai, this week.

Ashmit, who sang this number himself and shot for the video just two days before he entered the House, is ‘rapping’ away his pain in it. “Ashmit has always been judged for his silence. Through the video, he relives his past, trying to deal with it and move on in life,” informed Bhagwagar at the press meet.

Be it his times with Murder co-star Mallika Sherawat, his efforts to pull his family back together, or the scandalous MMS which rocked his life and took away his love, Ashmit has poured his heart out – all in the song.

“Whether it’s his tirade against Bigg Boss bully Dolly Bindra, or his attempt at clearing his name off the muck he has faced in the past, Ashmit is not going to give up. In fact, he’s more determined than ever, to be proactive and fight back,” the publicist added.

Asked about the ‘true nature’ of Ashmit’s relationship with Sara Khan in the Bigg Boss House, Bhagwagar quipped, its “pure friendship”. But when it came to Pakistani starlet Veena Mailk, he winked and said, “impure friendship” (whatever that meant).

Elaborating, he remarked, “Whether it has been Veena Malik’s frivolous allegations claiming that our Bollywood actress Neetu Chandra is involved with Pakistani cricketer Mohammad Asif in match-fixing, or her enticing moves on Ashmit in Bigg Boss, I’ve always maintained that she cannot be trusted. And after seeing her antics in Bigg Boss, I have a feeling, the nation is agreeing with me.”

The lyrics of Ashmit’s song ‘Apni Kahani Apni Zubaani’

Poochte hain log, hamesha ye sawaal,

Kahan tha? Kahan kho gaya, tu itne saal?

Kuch aise haadse hue, ghira apne ghutno par,

Bebasee, laacharee, sharm se jhuk gaya sar,

Bikhri meri duniya, mere khwab, mera ghar,

Jab chhod jaaye apne, toh lagta hai darr.

My life, my career, all went for a toss,

Bad decisions, bad luck put me through such loss,

One after another, life shot me with a dart,

Like a broken arrow, I was falling apart.

CHORUS

Poochte hain log, hamesha ye sawaal,

Kahan tha? Kahan kho gaya, tu itne saal?

Main batata hoon, apni kahani, apni zubaani…

Something or another kept falling out of place,

A leaked MMS and disgrace, slapped on my face.

No I didn’t do it, but I paid the price for it,

Broken ties, faith and trust, made me feel like shit.

Family relationships turned bitter overnight,

I swear I tried to save it, with all my might.

Flop filmein, rukawatein, baitha tha bekaar,

Na kaam, na cash, na kismat mere yaar.

CHORUS

Poochte hain log, hamesha ye sawaal,

Kahan tha? Kahan kho gaya, tu itne saal?

Life ki game kay patte bunt chuke the,

Toh kya kiya maine?

Drugs? Alcohol? Violence? No way!

I’m stronger than that, all I did was pray.

Turned to spirituality, yoga, meditation,

My limits started going beyond imagination,

Meri body, mera temple, bani meri dedication,

Started redefining this God’s own creation.

Mushkilon ko gale lagaya, mehnat ko apna banaya,

Ek baar phir maine, khud ko apnon ke sang paya.

Chorus

Poochte hain log, hamesha ye sawaal,

Kahan tha? Kahan kho gaya, tu itne saal?

To all those questions here’s my answer,

Hell I’m back, faster and smarter.

I’m focused, I’m stronger, I’m ready to dare,

I’m hungry for the love of all those who care.

For once I wanna set the record straight,

I’m back and I’m gonna make this worth your wait.

Giroonga, uthoonga, phir giroonga, phir uthoonga,

Par kisi bhi dam par, haar nahin maanoonga,

Haar uski, jo khudh haar maan le,

Jeet uski, jo girkar phir sambhal le.

‘Ashmit did NOT know Ali or Sara before Bigg Boss! He is clean’

Even as Ali Merchant and Sara Khan are all set to tie the knot on live television tonight (November 10) on Bigg Boss, rumours are afloat that the couple has been married from a year now. Moreover, reports state that the couple has been good friends with Ashmit Patel from a long time and that the trio had a dinner meeting before Ashmit and Sara entered Bigg Boss.

Strongly refuting the latter part of the rumours, Ashmit’s publicist Dale Bhagwagar said, “I don’t know if Ali Merchant and Sara Khan had a registered marriage (as reported) last year or not! What I do know is that Ashmit has had no such meeting with Ali or Sara ever. And I can personally vouch for that.”

The PR specialist also denied that Ashmit has been friends with the couple before the show. “To the best of my knowledge and from what I have gathered from Ashmit’s family, friends and managing team, Ashmit hasn’t even known either Ali or Sara in person, before he entered Bigg Boss.”

So with the record set straight from Ashmit’s side and the Bollywood actor being out of the scheme of things, it now remains to be seen, how true the Ali-Sara marriage rumour is!

‘If girls are falling for Ashmit, it’s not his fault!’

While Bollywood actor Ashmit Patel is being cornered by many in and outside the Bigg Boss House, for being extra cozy with television actress Sara Khan and Pakistani starlet Veena Malik, the actor’s publicist Dale Bhagwagar doesn’t seem to be evading the issue either.

Admitting that Ashmit has gone in Bigg Boss with an agenda to promote his career, the publicist denied rumours that his ‘casanova image’ has been engineered. “The allegations about things being stage-managed are untrue. Ashmit is a cool dude. If girls are falling for him, it’s not his fault. We have witnessed in the show that Ashmit has hardly made any advances. It’s always been the girls,” Bhagwagar pointed out. “If a girl seeks warmth, it’s natural for a man to respond and Ashmit should not be blamed for reciprocating,” he said.

Meanwhile, the relationships in the Bigg Boss House are getting more and more entangled than ever. While Shweta Tiwari’s conflict with Dolly Bindra continues, the late-night bitching sessions between Manoj Tiwari and Hrishant Goswami are also being gossiped. And as Ali Merchant gears to wed Sara Khan, Hrishant Goswami has made it clear to Veena Malik that she can have his friendship, but shouldn’t expect romance.

Sarcastic Ashmit confronts unruly Dolly!

Just like a matador would take a bull by its horns, Ashmit Patel confronted ‘the’ Dolly Bindra, even if it was over petty matters in the Bigg Boss House.

 

While Dolly kept close to her typical style of shouting and screaming, Ashmit coolly kept pulling her leg. When her terms like ‘frustrated’ and ‘loner’ didn’t seem to rattle Ashmit, Dolly finally called him a “psychic”.

 

She expected Ashmit to flare up, but to her surprise, he corrected her English, saying, she probably meant “psycho.” At this point, Dolly could hardly bear Ashmit’s sarcasm and remarked on the words ‘Rehab is for Quitters’ written on his T-shirt. She told Ashmit he should be in rehab, least realizing that once again her salvo would go against her argument, simply because she couldn’t understand the line on his T. And yeah, Ashmit didn’t quit either!

 

It was a sight to watch, especially as Ashmit, being the House Captain, was standing up for many, who would love to see a match to the unruly Dolly.

 

While Veena Malik, Sara Khan and Ali Merchant stayed neutral to the panga, Manoj Tiwari later told Ashmit, “Aise logon ke mooh lagna theek nahin,” meaning, “It’s not good to argue with such people.” Meanwhile, outside the House, Ashmit’s publicist Dale Bhagwagar termed the Bollywood actor’s panga with Dolly Bindra as “his Diwali gift to his fans.”

 

Is Veena Malik double-faced?

We’ve all seen Pakstani starlet Veena Malik kiss, hug, cuddle, fondle, caress and openly flirt with Bollywood actor Ashmit Patel in Bigg Boss. But in a sudden twist of events, throwing out of the window, the so-called culture, ethics and tehzeeb she often speaks about, Veena now says, it was Hrishant Goswami who she was really after, claiming that Ashmit Patel was taking advantage of her.

 

“How can Veena say that about Ashmit, especially after the nation has watched her doing all those things to him on camera,” asks Ashmit’s publicist Dale Bhagwagar. “It seems, Veena has been enticing Ashmit for fun and playing with his emotions as if he were a toy boy. If that’s the case, she’s double-faced and it’s not fair,” he added.

 

Wonder if Pakistani cricketer Mohammad Asif (who once fell for Veena’s charms) would love to second that!

 

After all, the Pakistani starlet has indeed been repeatedly caught on camera, chasing, wooing and caressing Ashmit in the Bigg Boss House lawns, giving him a head massage, fondling and cuddling him under the quilt on a bean bag at nights, sensually dancing for him in the kitchen and mischievously playing with him outside the washroom; to the extent of scandalously nudging him with her butt. Now strangely, conspiring with Dolly Bindra, Veena is ‘blaming’ Ashmit for the advances she has made herself.

 

While Veena’s raunchy behaviour with Ashmit is in question, the Bollywood actor has been managing the situation with admirable dignity. In Veena’s presence, he even asked Sara Khan on the show, “Main kya koi Teddy Bear hoon, ke jo bhi aaye, squeeze karke chale jaaye? Mere koi emotions, jazbaat, feelings nahin? Main bhi ek insaan hoon.”

 

Veena stings Sara as Ashmit sleeps!

We all know that things have been rollicking between Ashmit Patel and Sara Khan, but no one had imagined that Veena ‘Vishkanya’ Malik might have had a stinging agenda, throwing in a spanner in the Ashmit-Sara romance.

The starlet from Pakistan may tom-tom about her values, ethics and self-respect when slamming her ex-boyfriend Mohammad Asif, but when it came to Ashmit Patel, Veena didn’t even seem to bother how her colleague Sara would feel, if she found out about her stinging escapade with Ashmit in the darkness of 5am.

When Bigg Boss gave Ashmit and Veena a task to welcome Diwali, the festival of lights, by making sure some diyas kept burning throughout the night besides the House pool, Sara probably sensed danger and wasn’t willing to leave Ashmit alone with Veena. But House captain Manoj Tiwari along with Hrishant Goswami intervened and sent the chirpy Sara to bed, little knowing that some hidden flames were waiting to flare.

Night cameras caught Veena cuddling the Patel boy like a baby while fondling and caressing him with love, as they lied covered on a bean bag. But just as Veena’s fondness seemed to grow into possessiveness, an innocent and tired Ashmit dosed off in her arms.

It was a sight which shocked the viewers, but Ashmit’s publicist Dale Bhagwagar said, he isn’t surprised. “I’ve always maintained that Veena Malik is a drama queen. She is not what she says she is,” he remarked and sarcastically added, “Just as some people can never change, some flames cannot be extinguished.”
